Seasonal Activity Chart
Brown Trout
While Henderson, Nevada, isn't immediately known for its Brown Trout fishing, nearby Lake Mead and the tailwaters below Hoover Dam offer surprisingly good opportunities. The key is understanding the seasonal forage. During the cooler months, Browns will actively hunt rainbow trout and other baitfish. Spring and Fall are prime times. Accessing the Colorado River below the dam requires navigating steep terrain; be prepared for a hike. Also, pay close attention to water releases from the dam, as fluctuating water levels can significantly impact fishing. Browns here tend to be opportunistic feeders, so matching your presentation to the current forage is crucial. Consider using lures that mimic smaller trout or crayfish patterns. Don't be afraid to experiment with depth, as Browns will often hold in deeper pockets, especially during warmer periods.
